Notes. Shown is the re-classification and proposed contamination (false positives) from this work. Uncertain sources are given separately.

(a)

The total number of remaining YSO candidates is the sum of the three classes (P, F, D).

(b)

Different types of false positives: Galaxies, Nebulosities (Fuzz), main-sequence stars or Class III candidates (MS/III), and contamination from image artifacts (C).

(c)

The number of uncertain objects are given separately for uncertain galaxy candidates (UG), and uncertain YSO candidates (UY).

(d)

Summarized contamination, giving a lower and upper limit based on the sum of false positives (f.p.) and the sum when including uncertain candidates (f.p. + U).
